Is there anyone with experience on both the R/GT Pro and Sr lines? More specifically the pads and gloves. I was wondering if there were any distinct differences on how they feel and play? Obviously the Pro gear being made from better materials should last longer and prevent stingers more efficiently but are there differences for example on the flex of the pads or how they slide?

I've had a mix of g3 senior and r/gt pro (and g1/g2) and the differences are marginal.  IMHO they offer the same level of protection and the senior gear doesn't seem to be breaking down any faster than the pro gear.  I'm much happier getting new gear twice as often simply because I can afford it, rather than pay more for the pro line and keep it twice as long.  

+1 for g-form /Bauer.  I use their knee pads to soften the landing on my old knees.

Sure, but that graphic shows it better than a picture will.  It's a velcro tab attached to the bottom of the thigh rise.  When you pull it down, the thigh rise flexes.  Attach it to the velcro, and it stops it from straightening.

Here's a pic from Chakal's review:
